Prooff helps entrepreneurs test and validate ideas in the real world, entirely re-inventing how startups get realised.
We're here to cut through the clutter and get you from idea, to proof, to funding, in an innovative new way. Prooff is an output driven non-profit organization that guides entrepreneurs to quickly test their ideas in the real world at the lowest cost possible, to allows them to get to funding or failure faster. Building intern and talented co-founder teams, members can join as founders (new startups), co-founders (Talentpreneurs™), investors, interns or sponsors.
Driving change through innovation can be tricky to navigate. While we primarily focus on the processes, tools and support needed by entrepreneurs during the Proof-of-Concept phase, should good founders lack the skills or funds, Prooff is also pioneering the concept of TalentpreneursTM to "fund" startups. TalentpreneursTM contribute their time and skills on the "Fair Share Principle" in exchange for shares or part-ownership. This prevents startups from stalling in critical phases.
Join and help build, manage and monetize great companies.
List your skills, resources or ideas. Gain access to the Entrepreneurial Community portal. The best ideas will be vetted and selected for mentoring or partnerships in the Prooff ignition Program.
Based on factors such as interest, necessity, skills, location, etc. TalentpreneursTM, interns and investors may be selected for collaboration, partnership or shares where applicable.
Bootstrap and hustle as one team, with one goal, under the guidance of experienced business leaders, to prove or prototype your idea. Prooff assists in delivering the POC, as well as with pitching and applying for funding.
Recruiting dedicated startuppers
Help build, manage and monetize great companies. Bring a skill (or ideas), alongside a commitment to success, and join or build a motivated team that delivers. The more value you generate, the more you become the boss and owner of a project.
If you are an entrepreneur by heart but currently don't have any businesses ideas, you can list your skills and join an existing startup team.
Grow your wealth by investing time, not money, as a co-founder into startups with huge potential. Prooff builds talented co-founder teams, to bootstrap good ideas.
Today’s interns are brimming with fresh ideas, raw talent, and a hunger to learn and contribute. The Prooff intern program is an exhilarating career path like no other.
Invest in teams who already has Proof of Concept. Suitably skilled teams, with a verified Proof of Concept, are an excellent starting point for considering investment.
Falling into a new category, Proof is an ignition program. We focus on shorter term engagements (1-4 months) to prove and test ideas fast and efficiently, for as little costs as possible. We focus on pressing a higher turnover to help more startups in volume, with a lower barrier of entry to qualify. We focus on startup applicants that have good communication skills, whose ideas can scale, be validated quickly, and who can join the program remotely.
In 80% of the cases, Proof of Concept is the path of least cost from idea stage to funding. When rallying co-founder teams that work for shares, it is important to maintain focus and motivation. Validating your ideas at an early stage proves that you are on the correct track, before investing too much time and money on development.
The single most costly reason why businesses fail, is that they jump in without validating their idea. Sadly, then it's too late. Ironically, validating ideas first is low risk, costs less, and can lead to profitability much quicker. This is why Prooff guides entrepreneurs to think differently about their approach to the market. Many ideas can be proven and tested fast. In fact, some businesses can be launched and produce sales even before their is a product.

"Took Our Idea And Turned It into A Solid Business"
By helping us find the right team members, Prooff really did help us to take our company idea and turn it into a solid business that has the potential to change the world!

Build A Fundable Business With Us
Prooff is assisting startups worldwide with turning ideas into scalable businesses. From advisors, investors, mentors, and entrepreneurs, Prooff provides all the resources required to drive startup participants to the perfect fit for their startups. How does it work?
Talentpreneurs™ invest time, not money.
Talentpreneurs™ are people who accumulate wealth without investing money. Instead, they invest their time, skills, and effort to earn "Sweat-Equity" or part ownership. Talentpreneurs™ are normal, dedicated people like you, who possess the skills, experience, or knowledge required to form a startup. From young developers to experienced lawyers. Prooff is reinventing the appearance of investors. Prooff is also revolutionizing the process of how business ideas are to be converted into multimillion dollar companies, through a process of cherry picking and pre-approving the best startup ideas, subsequently establishing small, volunteer, and co-founded teams, in a drive towards wealth.
What is "fair"? It is fair when every person who contributes value to the successful implementation of a business idea, and their companies, are valued on an equal level, and is genuinely involved in the company as well as its success.
You determine the extent of your contributions in an analogue and digitally accompanied, social process within your teams, the so-called "product partnerships".
In conjunction with the Faculty of Business, Economics and Social Sciences at the University of Tübingen, we have developed a system and algorithm that ensures that the income from the product partnership will be distributed fairly and proportionally, based on the resulting distribution. This is what we call "Fair Share".
The type of projects we take on:
Our preferred projects usually focus on catchy and funky new business ideas, and concepts in the SaaS and Mobile App space. But we never discard a good founder or a great idea. Lets build your team together, with combined drive and love for the game. We do have a preference for ideas in the medical, financial, and wellbeing fields.
